Sad to say, but we need more prisons in the USA. We have more criminals every year who are lazy, morally bankrupt and care for no one. No plea bargains, no parole and no good time behavior reductions. Put these loosers away by the droves and crime rates will come down. If only we could stop most of the welfare and medicare fraud to pay for them. I know it’s a dream?
